State House warns HH and GBM, We will no longer tolerate their nonsense- Amos Chanda

Mr Amos Chanda
State House says they can no longer tolerate delusional, disgraceful and tyrannical leaders such as UPND leaders Hakainde Hichilema and his Vice Geoffrey Mwamba.

And the State has announced that decisive action will be taken on the duo (HH and GBM) for fanning hate speech and confusion in the state.

Briefing the media Special Assistant to the President for Press and Public Relations Amos Chanda, announced that the state could no longer tolerate the criminal behaviour of the duo opposition leaders who had caused confusion by setting a campaign in Western, North Western and Southern Province spreading falsehoods that the International Criminal Court on the 15th November, 2016 would declare Hichilema President of the Republic of Zambia.

Mr Chanda announced that they were no cases filed against government by the duo in the ICC and ICJ but noted that the duo instead had been sued by private citizens from Namwala in the ICC for crimes against humanity.

Hefurthered revealed that they had received communication that an ample team of five investigators would be in the country soon to investigate the Namwala compliant.

He said Hichilema and Mwamba’s actions were not just regrettable but highly disgraceful.
“You can not declare yourself President after you write your own paper lie that it is ICC using a fake PVT and then you start causing tension, dividing the nation and causing violence….. These are criminal actions and Government will not tolerate this behaviour,” he said.

“The relevant authorities will move in, we had hoped their conscious would work on them but now relevant authorities have to move in. There is a country to run and protect. Those who break the law the law will intervene.”

He noted that Hichilema had no immunity from the law and since he had been acting like a criminal he would be treated as one.

“They are labouring under illusion…. Losing an election or being an opposition leaders does not give you immunity and because you are causing confusion, fanning violence the relevant authorities will definitely move in,” Mr Chanda warned.

Opposition leaders Hichilema and Mwamba have launched campaigns in Southern, Western and North Western provinces thriving on people’s ignorance announcing that Hichilema would be declared winner of the just ended elections by the ICC a court that that does not hear election petitions.

The duo’s campaign has excited some sort individuals who have hence resorted to rebellious behaviour which has caused violence in some communities.

Mr Chanda announced that President Lungu was committed to running a peaceful country and would thus not allow two individuals to stabilise the peaceful of the sovereign state based on lie.

    • You can not have peace when you have stolen something, Its like EL and his thieves are scared of even their shadows. Just move on if these guys are telling lies it will just die away but since you know what you have done its like you will try by all means to make sure that it does not come out.

    • We want a strong opposition and so far HH, GBM, Nalumango and Mumba should be commended. They are sucrificing everything: their businesses, families among others for us. We can not go back to one party state like the way Mutati has done. The fact that UPND is so much alive tells you that HH is a genuine leader.

    • The first paragraph is the most telling. Those three words. Delusion. Disgrace. Tyranny.

      Time for the psychological description of projection’.

      Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.

    • What every you and ECL are planning, better NOT endanger the lives of HH and GBM. Zambia is not only for PF but all the citizenry.
      Good Bless Zambia.

    • The stolen vote will haunt then for as long as no court declared Lungu winner. There’s currently no president in Zambia, only one drunkard masquerading as one.

    • PF and Lungu will pay dearly if they harm HH. That I am sure of. Lungu should not start a fire he cannot stop. All dictators always feel that they have all the firepower they need. Even Museveni, Lungu’s mentor, has failed to finish the Lord’s Resistance Army for over 30 years. And look at Syria or Gaddafi in Libya. Firepower is not the answer to a peaceful country.

    • HH and GBM, please hasten the ICC or ICJ Projects otherwise it would be too late for you because Edgar Lungu may withdraw Zambia from the above mentioned UN Agencies to avoid embarrassment (that is if the PF still have morality and embarrassment).

    • GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT.
      PRISON FOR TREASON
      AND LIFE IMPRISONMENT
      @BUCK TEETH ….SHOULD ACCOMPANY THEM TO MAKE TEA FOR HIS HEROS

    • Let HH go to ICC and defend ‘his human rights’

      Including his perceived right to commit crimes.

      Let him go and say, ‘how about my rights?’.

    • Who is being called tyrannical. Chanda cannot believe he has come so far, upstart, and he thinks he can talk nonsense. Those political prostitute judges put Lungu in but no decent and upright person recognizes him. He is a tyrant, closing newspapers and arresting people. If he is the hte legitimate, let him rule and leave the people be.

  1. Mr. HH & Ba GBM,you guys can you accept the fact that HE ECL is president. Move on and start a thanks giving campaign for the people who voted for you. Five years is not a long time soon we will have another election there do the work of the opposition of checks and balance to PF govt for the benefit of the majority Zambians living in poverty.
    Next item please.

    • @ 2.1 Spaka like lilo,

      Who can allow a platform for someone to denounce the presisent.

      Mention one country on earth where the state gives a platform to individuals to denounce the president.

      If HH was going round thanking voters and not dennoicing the president he would be allowed.

      No, state in the whole world ever allows individuals to carry out crimes against the state and threaten the peace of citizens.

    • @ Peace for Zambia

      Before making comments, can you learn spelling or at least learn how to use “spell check”

      By the way, do you know of another case in the World, where Constitutional Court did NOT rule on the matters of Application?
      Please educate yourself instead of spreading inbred genetically induced 1mbecility

    • @3 Sam, yes the Namwala case is at the Hague! Everything Chanda talked about is local but HH and GBM had long chosen to bring into local issues international institutions! He wrote to SADC,COMESA,AU,EU,the Commonwealth and the UN about what he thought was the way he was going to loose unfairly. They are the ones who have taken their petition to the ICC but have also been sued by local citizens they victimized in Namwala after loosing the election. So let us wait and see because the this site is just informing us. It is not the ICC!!

  2. Zambia recently fasted and prayed for reconciliation, it will be wonderful to use appropriate christian virtues and language when addressing opposition leaders. I may not agree with their behaviour but those who are or claim to be christian ought to embrace their enemies and this is a cost every believer is meant to bear

    • The two hooligans shunned the prayers so that they can continue fanning anarchy in the country. These two guys will just end being locked up and Zambia will continue moving on. I can’t shy away from the feeling that there are senior UPND members who would be celebrating when these two clowns are locked up.

    • For how long are u going to embrace them,even in the time of Jesus,people who were not following the constitution were being arrested.all enemies of peace must b arrested period.

  3. Even a child can see that this is a scheme by PF govt to eliminate HH and GBM. I am based in North Western and have not seen or heard anybody announce or spread such fake rumours.
    Is this the new plan PF has developed after the other plot was exposed by UPND on the plans.
    It is clear that Lungu is a vengeful person becuase if he knew he had won without some form of rigging he would have no sleepless nights.

    • There is no scheme to eliminate any losers in Zambia. The ballot has eliminated them already. HH and GBV should just shut up and start campaigning for 2021? They have now become a nuisance. HH and GBV are the vengeful, ones they will be happy to see PF’s Zambia up in flames. They have no regard for the majority who voted PF…Where is their PVT kanshi!!!! why have they not published it or at least dispute Cornelius Banda’s revelation that they have no credible PVT or evidence that the polls was even rigged.
      Ama nonsense yeka yeka fye…HH and GBV mwatusabila maningi, enough now.

  4. Mr Chanda, just ignore them. I thought you have been preaching that those two persons are not a factor. So ignore them and carry on your day to day business to ensure that Zambians can have 3 meals a day and they can get out of the list of the most hungriest people on earth. That is what matters, and not spending time chasing opposition leaders.
    Please deliver what you promised the Zambian people, we want you to Sontapo after 5 years. So stop the rubbish here.
    GBM and HH are just exercising their democratic voice, so be careful or you will cross the roads.

  5. When HH and GBM are arrested tomorrow and Lungu takes to the podium (while holding a bible in one hand) and proclaim that he does not issue instructions to Police on who should be arrested. Can you believe him?

    • The problem with lies. They catch up with you. We know why HH is in court every day. It is because of Lungu, regardless of what he says.

  6. Finally, government is at work. We can’t have these two criminals misbehaving and hope to be treated with kids gloves. Please just move in and arrest them, Chimbokaila still has space for this under 5 president and fat Albert.

  7. PF just pay back what you stole from the Zambian people as ordered by Constitutional court. We are not your children who should just shut up when the father flexes his muscles.

    • In fact govt should start by smoking out fanwell siandenge from wherever he is hiding and then arrest these two criminals so that all of them ( with matambo can be incarcerated). We don’t need them in Zambia. We have decent opposition leaders like Nawakwi and the rest. Even Winter is now reformed and worth respecting than chilema and gbv.

  8. In fact the move has taken longer! Those two chaps need to be caged and have the key thrown into the ocean. they have gone too far. Can you learn from Dr. Kaunda how he used to treat such situations so that calm can be restored.

  9. Gentlemen,any state has rules to follow and all Citizens are equal to the same law of the land regardless of one’s status and position in society.
    If HH and GBM are doing the right lawful things they won’t be arrested and charged but if what they are doing is un lawful why not arrest and be charged just like you and I?

    Even some comments that are made are a source of concern to the nation both by those in authority and opposition but mostly those come from the opposition…….they comment as if they wish war and anguish in the nation

  10. A government facing so many real challenges shouldn’t have the time to play blink with opposition leaders who by nature oppose. If they think they are in the right then rise above it rather than displaying threats emanating from political paranoia. Think food, education, health, economy and more not let me show you how big my whip is. What is this? High school?

  11. The problem is and will for ever be that, you have stated a firm position but there will be no implementation even when these thugs laugh at you wantonly committing crime. Even if you arrest them, you will fail to prosecute them and later a Noelle.

  12. Hechi Hechi deserve to be in Prison. When he was coming out third in the previous elections, he was not talking rubbish but accepting that he lost. Now that he came out second, he thinks that he won the election, which is wrong. Please, Zambians, we should avoid giving Hechi Hechi a sympathy vote or else, he will put this country on fire. Come 2021, God willing, we should place him on position number 4 or 5, then he will stop this nonsensical behaviour.

  13. There is only one UNITARY STATE CALLED ZAMBIA. THERE IS ONLY ONE SITTING HEAD OF STATE CALLED H.E. EDGAR CHAGWA LUNGU, THERE IS ONLY ONE CABINET OF 30 MINISTERS APPOINTED BY THE PRESIDENT. THERE IS ONLY ONE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY TO WHICH THE 58 MPS OF UNDER FIVE PARTY BELONG. THERE IS ONLY 10 PROVINCES IN THE STATE OF ZAMBIA. THE 10 PROVINCIAL MINISTERS ARE APPOINTED BY H.E. LUNGU. THERE ARE A HOST OF DISTRICT COMMISSIONERS APPOINTED BY H.E. LUNGU
    FOR THE ENTIRE COUNTRY. THERE IS ONLY ONE NATIONAL LANGUAGE FOR COMMUNICATION, ITS CALLED ENGLISH. ANYBODY OPERATING OUTSIDE THESE PARAMETERS IS CAUSING ARNACHY AND SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH REBELLION AND IMPRISONED FOR LIFE.

  14. Comment: Amos Chanda, i just came back frm Mongu to attend a funeral. I never heard or saw HH/GBM. Where did the campaigns take place? Amos you are lying to the Nation. What you are saying borders on rumour mongering and hatred. We have just come frm fasting and you still continue your hate speeches. I am tired of you Hollier thou Amos. Just tell your boss to work on the economy. We are starving.

  15. PF ARE JUST ANGRY BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE DID NOT CELEBRATE INDEPENDENCE DAY. THEY BROUGHT DICTATOR MUSEVENI TO DENOUNCE THE OPPOSITION INSTEAD OF TALKING ABOUT DEVELOPMENT. THESE TRIBALISTS ARE PRODUCING STINKING LIES FROM THEIR MOUTHS JUST BECAUSE THEY STOLE THE VOTES. THEY WANT PEOPLE TO BELIEVE THAT THEY WON CLEAN ELECTIONS. BAKUNDA MANYINA

  16. Very unprofessional utterances from the state. Do these officials undergo some form of training to equip them to perform their state functions with some semblance of decorum? This special assistant sounds angry and taking it very personal. HH and GBM had their vote stolen and are rightly aggrieved. PF got off on a technical hitch but that doesn’t mean they didn’t steal.

    • Forgive my ignorance comrade but I’ve been in court once and when you accuse somebody of stealing the justice or justices will ask for what was stolen and if its money, how much? Please enlighten me on how many votes were stolen? No insults please.

  17. Truth be told the red ants affecting HH and his new found zealots are HH is trying to be relevant on a ship that long sailed without him…anyway we want and need change in leadership we will not blind follow this guy.He can NEVER win us plot 1 he knows it deep down in his bitter heart. He wants to hold the party to ransom through dictatorship, threats etc. Even GBM is better as he speaks to us…him awe…HH zwaaaaa…2021 new leadership Zambia Forward…

  18. So this is what Museveni came to advise PF? To treat opposition leaders the way he is treating Besigye in Uganda? Total nonsense!

  19. @peace loving. “For how long are u going to embrace them,even in the time of Jesus,people who were not following the constitution were being arrested.all enemies of peace must b arrested period.”.

    So Jesus was an enemy of peace according to you?

  20. I think quick, decisive action is required. It’s no use crying wolf all the time whilst doing nothing about the provocation. The problem is also the Courts taking too long in hearing cases which are affecting national stability because they give cause to the two men, HH, GBM to use their UPND machinery to spin lies on ‘ongoing election decisions.’ The state needs to move and contain the situation created by the two. People are naturally easily manipulated currently because of the looming economic crisis. We need discipline and people need to be encouraged to partake in the solution.

    • They are not going to stop. These people are not children. They are wrongful men who have tested authority and know the fear of the state in acting on them. They will keep pushing the boundaries at every turn and they will be more creative in finding ways. Unfortunately, citizens can be manipulated into this mode of negative thinking because they are despondent about the future. Please stop issuing warnings, they make nonsense. You are being mocked and you are trying to pretend it’s not happening! It’s not resolving anything. Once citizens become rebellious it’s difficult to heal the wounds that may need to be inflicted to bring back peace and stability. Gov’t cannot be like a Deer caught in headlights….too frightened to move Left or Right. Your enemy knows this. Start…

    • Start with their money, where did they get it? An inquiry into that is far better than one of where their violence comes from. Take monies back and you can remove some power that way.

  21. Lies lies and more lies from PF.

    many bloggers are in those areas chanda mentions and non of them have heard any rumours or seen HH or GBM.

    Why are PF such liers ? Instead of addressing the declining the economy they rather lie to their kaponya supporters about the opposition.

  22. HH and UPND PARTY – CHANGE LEADERSHIP. LET SOMEONE ELSE LEAD UPND. HH MUST TAKE BACK BENCH AND LET OTHERS WORK FOR THE PARTY. I AM NOT A VOTER BUT FOR SOME REASON ZAMBIANS HAVE TAKEN A DISLIKE TO MR HH. LET SOMEONE IN THE PARTY TAKE LEADERSHIP AND LET IT GO, JUST LET IT GO. ELECTIONS ARE RIGGED AROUND THE WORLD – THEY ARE RIGGING ELECTIONS IN THE USA AS WE SPEAK – TRUMP MIGHT WIN. THOSE VOTING FOR HILLARY CLINTON ARE ALREADY COMPLAINING THAT THE MACHINE IS FAULTY …! LET IT GO LET IT GO HH – YOU HAVE LEFT YOUR MARK ON ZAMBIAN POLITICS – LEAVE THE PF TO THEIR OWN DEVICES – STAND DOWN AND HELP THE PARTY FROM THE WINGS LIKE DIPAK PATEL DOES.

  23. for those that have attended funerals in villages, there is a time when people support you as you mourn, usually when you just arrive and are still crying seriously but time comes when they get fed up and just watch you. if they think you have over mourned, they organise your cousins or bachimbuye in teasing you through their crying sarcastically and if they notice its too much, they may organise two people to shambock you so that your crying becomes genuine again.

  24. Rubbish misguided Chagwa – just fix the economy instead of issuing empty hollow threats. …u are just as empty as your so called President – ma rubbish fit for flushing in a dirty toilet

  25. It amazes me just how some people choose to be donkeys. Now I have no issues with GBM not because he is my tribesmate but because everybody including UPND members, leaders and MPs know that he is the lumpen that HH tried unsuccessfully to make our vice president. But for HH, did you just say that he was a graduate economist? Looks and behaves more like a donkey to me. Did you say they produced donkey economists at UNZA those days?

  26. On another note, can anyone here recognise the HH who was smiling broadly and confidently prior to the elections? He is now a shadow of himself looking sad and forlorn and like an HIV patient, I mean the guy is unable to smile anymore and his face is drwan and thin, with hollows developing in his cheeks if you look carefully. But anyway he just used to pretend with a plastic smile and now he is returned to his normal sadistic self of no smile. Have you seen him go to church after the elections, aping Chagwa Lungu pretending to be a Christian? Thank God we can now see the true HH, thanks to his record fifth consecutive defeat, and a second loss to a political novice for that matter.

  27. Good job GRZ, when I see his picture too, I get nausea! Please put him behind bars to protect Zambia! He is not fit to be a leader. He belongs to Under Five Clinic.

  28. Zambia is surely greater than all political parties. Even if the elections were to be held today HH and his running mate would get even less votes than they got in August. And the reason is that people have seen through them. What kind of leaders are they? They are only good for their respective businesses. If HH has lost so much money through funding his personal party then he should not blame ECL he should blame the Employers of presidents in Zambia and that is the people of Zambia, because they chose to employ ECL over HH. Only ECZ is mandated to declare a presidential candidate in Zambia. If you want ICC to declare you in Zambia you are behaving worse than a moron. If you want fighting in our great nation you will be alone in the streets or shrubs. Only few paid thugs will join you…

  29. Chanda Chanda Chanda please! Like your misled predecessors Richard Sakala, Dickson Jere, etc even if you are a political appointee, you are not a politician but a civil servant. You can’t be commenting on politics let alone issue threats. Its not your job to bark at Lungu’s political opponents but to manage the president s press relations. Lungu please brief your staff unless you think by Chanda doing the wrong job this saves you the trouble of addressing such issues yourself. In which case you are misusing taxpayer’s money.

  30. Lungu’s threats will not succeed to destroy HH and GBM and this young boy Chanda will one day cry for being used by Changwa as his useless vuvuzella

  31. HH is slowly turning into a version of Joseph Koni and GBV into DRC’s Gen Bemba- both are already dictators- thje ICC is coming for a fact finding mission and they will find HH guilty of inciting violence which has led to violent attacks, violent evictions and 1 murder of a PF member in the pro UPND areas. The facts are there and an independent court will come to verify these findings.

    UPND stands the risk of being dismanded as a party for incitement of violence! This is what HH wants so he can attempt to fan more violence- his evil plans will fail!

  32. Mr. Chanda
    As usual, your “knowledge” of law is so low that almost mach the one of your boss.
    Two issues you are raising are contrary to the various statues:
    1. No private person can initiate legal proceedings in International Court of Justice without backing of State. Please read relevant Treaty establishing ICJ before showing your superficiality, incompetence and ignorance in the matters of International Law. As to ICC, please try to be serious. Do you really consider than complain by two non-com cadres will necessitate UN Security Council intervention? Please leave International Law to the Learned as you are NOT one of them.
    2. On the issue of “antics” by HH and GBM your comments are bordering disrespect and direct intervention of the Executive in the due “course of Law”…

  33. @41 ICC, what you are saying on ICJ is not at variance with what Amos Chanda is saying. He is accusing HH and GBM of lying to their supporters about their petition being at ICJ and to be ruled on next month and maybe declare HH as winner. It is HH and GBM who are either ignorant or want to mislead their ignorant supporters. So to call their bluff Amos is saying that govt will verify and give true info to those supporters. Do you think that HH’s ignorant supporters in those three regions have any sense to believe govt if Amos does not verify? I think that your advice to Amos should onstead be directed to HH and GBM, they clearly need it more than Amos. Just look at where they are in Zambia with their petition, ati after those throwing out their petition for want of time the Concourt did…

  34. @41 ICC contd….
    I think that your advice to Amos should onstead be directed to HH and GBM, they clearly need it more than Amos. Just look at where they are in Zambia with their petition, ati after those throwing out their petition for want of time the Concourt did not rule on whether inauguration of Edgar Lungu can proceed or not. Exactly donkey reasoning….hiho hiho hiho hiho.

  35. @ Terrible

    I am making comment on statement made by uneducated 1mbecile pretending to be “Learned” (same lake you) on the well established procedural matters of International Law.
    Unlike you, I do NOT put HH or GBM at the center of my life. If and when either HH or GBM make “prima facia” ludicrous statement like the one above, most probably I will make appropriate comment.
    Until then, instead of me using donkey reasoning, with all due respect, instead of sucking, get f*cked by your close four legged relative with log ears.

  36. The quality of leadership is judged by the conduct, behaviour, statesmanship, fairness, tolerance and deligency in the way they execute thier duties. Chandas threats is a source of concern. Why does this PF government spend so much time on strategies to punish, create fear and cause harm to those with opposing views? They should concentrate con fixing the economy. Governance is not about stealing votes and afterwards you silence people. Let Chanda be warned also that HH and GBM are not alone in this fight to rescue Zambia from recklessness, corruption, impunity, thuggery and injustice. ECL and his government are smaller than Zambia. Watch your language and stop intimidating fellow Zambians.

  37. What a hopeless press aide this guy is. At least quote something in the constitution that has been broken by these two. This stance of intolerance based on perceived disgrace and fuzzy actions just doesn’t cut it. It is time we held our leaders to account by steering them back to the constitution they promised to uphold. SA is already showing us a good example of this articulation. I bet Malema would have had a few broken bones by now if he was in this country. Awe mwe.

  38. What nosense is this delusional Amos Chanda referring to? HH & GBM have constitutional rights to attend weddings,funerals, visit their beloved ones in hospitals and jails, go to church and above all to petetion if they are wronged. This they have already done and the Petetions are in Courts. Until the Concourt Presidential Petetion is heard,determined and Lungu is declared Winner of the 2016 Election he will remain illegitimate. HH,GBM and UPND will not recognize Lungu as legitimate President until the Petetions are disposed off to their liking and if not they have the the right to Petetion ICC and ICJ depending on the merits of their applications. Having stolen the elections Lungu should seek reconciliation rather than confrontation. The guilty are very very afraid and Amos Chanda and…

  39. @48 Mwape, first of all I want to assure you that it is okay in Zambia to use your real name from southern. No one will arrest you for that, they only arrest if you break the law, e.g. impersonation. Secondly, ler me guide you on the outcome of the petition. Under the constitution of Zambia, the Concourt either hears/determines the petition OR they throw it out it if it goes beyond 14 days. The latter happened in this case and it is entirely legal regardless of what deal HH stuck with his relative in the Concourt. That is why the Concourt voted 3 to 2 with HH relative fully participating but on the losing side. Have you ever heard that relative deny participation in the vote? No, he was outvoted and voting is all within judicial procedures when they cannot reach a unanimous decision…

  40. @48 Mwape, first of all I want to assure you that it is okay in Zambia to use your real name from southern. No one will arrest you for that, they only arrest if you break the law, e.g. impersonation. Secondly, ler me guide you on the outcome Have you ever heard that relative deny participation in the vote? No, he was outvoted and voting is all within judicial procedures when they cannot reach a unanimous decision. That is all water under the bridge now after exhausting the legal process. If all the courts (and monitors) have ruled against you, can you consider yourself the only person who is correct? Not unless you are either a donkey or you think like one really sick donkey. Hihi hiho hiho hiho.

  41. Lungu spent $10 billion on roads , he used all state machinary including police, army , ZAF and public funds to a point of bankrupting the treasury to campain for him.
    Instead of getting a landslide victory he had to rig elections and only managed less than 50% even with rigging.

    No wonder lungu is bitter and is afraid of HH and GBM not allowing them freedom of expression.
    Bloggers on this thread are in the areas chanda mentions and no one heard or seen any of what chanda is talking about.

    Until the petition is heard more then 50% of zambians who did not vote for lungu will always see him as a fraud vote theif.

  42. Laphable childish threats. Y intimidating the opposition? Its necessary to v strong opposition in a real democracy! Mind yo businesses! Yo threat is pure rubbish BA Chanda!

  43. And I have not heard so far that HH has challenged the legality of that split points decision of the Concourt to throw out the petition on account of time. But it is understandable considering that HHs relatives voted freely and legally and so HH knows that they will not agree to be his witnesses even if they were his own mother.
    But ironically the source of HHs problem is the same aunt who at midnight accommodated HH illegally and tried to ILLEGALLY extend the petition by another 4 days. Whether the constitution says that a relative sitting on the bench can extend a petition hearing by another four days, it is you to tell the world. Meantime HH called a press conference at his home to boast about a tribal not legal decision. As usual HH celebrated prematurely bexause the other Concourt…

  44. PF seem to be relying on technicalities to dismiss the petition , if lungu won as they claim what is the fear of hearing this petition ?

  45. Contd…. Meantime HH called a press conference at his home to boast about a tribal not a legal decision, essentially boasting about the power of his tribe, exposing his thinly veiled tribal inclination and tribal rise to power, I mean power in UPND for state power has eluded him forever. As usual HH celebrated prematurely because the other Concourt judges were not about to allow themselves to be dragged into ILLICIT, TRIBAL dealing where most probably money also exchanged hands at midnight that fateful saturday. By the way, are they setting up a yribunal to probe those relatives of HH? Or are they going to resign honourably?

  46. Lungu spent $10 billion on roads , he used all state machinary including police, army , ZAF and public funds to a point of bankrupting the treasury to campain for him.
    Instead of getting a landslide victory he had to rig elections and only managed less than 50% even with rigging.

    No wonder lungu is bitter and is afraid of HH and GBM not allowing them freedom of expression.
    Bloggers on this thread are in the areas chanda mentions and no one heard or seen any of what chanda is talking about.

    Until the petition is heard more then 50% of zambians who did not vote for lungu will always see him as a fraud vote theif.

  47. No amount of threats intimidation and gagging will change the mindset of more than 50 % of zambians who did not vote for lungu that lungu stole the elections.

    Until the petition is heard lungu remains a vote theif.

    You can jail the UPND leaders but the more than 50 % of zambians who want clean elections and results will not change.

    This is about the future of free and credible elections in zambia. It not about HH and GBM.

  48. My Children are already 18 years. Could someone kindly advise when Voters cards ISSUING PROCESS will commence? They are eager to vote for ECL and teach this Hakaivotela Humwine heka a big lesson in 2021.

    Is 47% equal to more than 50%? Just wondering some HH Sympathizers maths year here. From my education 53% is bigger than 47% so i don’t know what they mean by saying it vice versa.

    • After spending $10 billion and using all state marchinary and rigging and intimidation you should be ashamed to even mention 53 %.

      Lungu does not sleep that is why he is following HH and GBM around the country intimidating them.

      The guilty are afraid, very afraid.

  49. I can never be ashamed. Even if elections were called today and another one tomorrow or the other day i can never vote for HH and UPND. I would still add my vote to the 53% may be even more this time around.

  50. Why are you scared if you ate not guilty of anything we all have our right to freedom of expression if truly the icc is there let it be and let the offender and the innocent be ruled out but the fact is that we zambian twacula we ne need God to intervene let’s pray for unity one Zambia one nation and ask ourselves where we have gone wrong accept our wrong doings

  51. Just a thought… What if Museven had said that HH was right to complain about his defeat and the COnCourt should revisit its decision… What would have HH and UPND said…? Please I need honest answer from HH and UPND zealots… Be fair in comments and answer.

    • The rule of law is the rule of law. If more than 50 % of zambians feel the election was stolen it is right for the concourt and the nation to hear the petition. If lungu won why rely on technicalities to block the petition ?

      No matter what MU7 said we want free and fair elections in zambia with freedom of expression knowing election results are not fake. This is for the future of the electrol process of our country. It is not about HH.

      Why should we have the cloud of vote stealing hanging over our future elections ?

  52. it has become clear that the inocent opposition leaders are being hunted daily by the pf government and that no courts of law will give them fair hearing in this country hence the brewing of troubles by the pf so that they find an excuse to arrest , we argue you two guys to quickly go to icc and icj to seek attention not here. the results were not accepted. and taken to the concourt which was in order according to our laws . so let the courts come up with a decision.

  53. Censored yesterday by LT:
    Chanda Chanda Chanda please! Like your misled predecessors Richard Sakala, Dickson Jere, etc even if you are a political appointee, you are not a politician but a civil servant. You can’t be commenting on politics let alone issue threats. Its not your job to bark at Lungu’s political opponents but to manage the president s press relations. Lungu please brief your staff unless you think by Chanda doing the wrong job this saves you the trouble of addressing such issues yourself. In which case you are misusing taxpayer’s money.

  54. How can NONSENSE itself warn a person, a winner of elections, if YOU nonsense fill excited with state house, just watch baboons dancing DUNUNA REVERSE at Zambian Observer!

  55. Why do African leaderships forget to factor mortality in their plans to be in charge forever? Or is it a perpetuation of tyranny by dynastic means? But then how will it work in a democratic, pluralistic dispensation…? Yaba! If only we can realize we are just dust, we will concentrate more on the task at hand, that is enabling our fellow clay-model humans to live a better life as a result of our ascendancy to their service. Is that so difficult to see???
